Its no wonder that Sam Harris was Dave Rubin's first guest, and was Joe Rigan's original "smart guy guest". He is the ultimate dumb guys intellectual. Like he knows absolutely nothing about anything he talks about.
That's why everything is a "thought experiment." He doesn't know anything outside of his own thoughts
He's a quack and always has been. Even his doctorate was effectively bought with his parents' money, making a foundation that only existed long enough to award him the doctorate. He doesn't do peer reviewed papers; he just makes shit up and his credulous Reddit New Atheist rube followers believe it.

Hell yeah. Theres so much wrong with Harris it needs a part two
When Sam Harris said that "there was more scientific advancement in a single zip code of New York than in all the history of Islam" I knew instantly what a fucking hack he was. Those aren't even directly comparable concepts and one is measured geographically and the other in a much more vague and nebulous form!
That comparison doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Also, no one in any New York zip code invented algebra or chemistry so even with his premise its still wrong lol
